OS: Vista x64 latest updates (SP2 not available for my language)
I can't safe remove USB flashdrive (or HDD) when defraggler is running (even without defragmentation running).. So when defragmentating, I can't unplug flashdrive that I need somewhere else

Defraggler seems to have a permanent handle open for every available drive in Windows not just the flash drive.
Without the flash drive handle close it cannot be safely removed however you can force close a process handle with software.
I would have recommended Unlocker however I understand it does not support Vista 64 therefore I would suggest using Sysinternals Process Explorer instead -

I know what the problem (opened handles) is..
I use USB Safely Remove which can close opened handles but it is quite annoying..
Defraggler should close handles on drives which are not being analysed or defragmented

I agree I see no technical reason why the handle cannot be purged if the drive is not being processed I guess this problem was overlooked by the coders.
